\nLeadfeeder is a fast-growing international SaaS startup, headquartered in Helsinki, Finland. We are an international remote team of 80+ members from around the world.\nWe've developed an online service which automates sales lead generation for B2B companies. Leadfeeder helps over 3000 paying customers to identify who visits their website, qualify the leads based on their behaviour, and convert the most promising visitors into sales leads.\nOur 30+ strong in-house, all-remote engineering team is responsible for developing new features, and otherwise improving and maintaining the Leadfeeder product.\nWe are organised in feature-oriented, cross-functional squads. Each squad is responsible for specific features of the product, and works tightly together with high autonomy. Depending on the product area, squads are comprised of Backend and Frontend Engineers, Designers, and are always paired with a Product Manager. We believe in listening to everyone's ideas and feedback no matter what your role is, you get to have a say in the product and technical decisions of your squad.\nRuby on Rails developers at Leadfeeder work mainly on our backends: building APIs, background data processing flows, and integrations. Being a very data-intensive application, much of the work on the Leadfeeder backend involves optimising and effectively using various databases Cassandra, AWS RDS & Aurora, Elasticsearch and Redis, to name a few.\nOur backend, we run multiple small-to-medium-sized Ruby on Rails apps and use serverless components (AWS Lambda, API Gateway, Kinesis) on the side. We pride ourselves on keeping apps working smoothly, and the codebase tidy and well-tested. We dedicate time for upgrades, refactoring and improvements in the developer experience.\nFor people with skills and interest, we offer possibilities to work on our Ember.js frontend too, enabling people to grow to a fullstack role. Equally, there are opportunities to learn and be involved in infrastructure, DevOps and serverless development.\n\n\nResponsibilities\n * Developing new features together with your squad \n * Build internal and public APIs\n * Build, benchmark and optimise our core backend components\n * Helping operate our production environments on AWS\n * Providing code reviews to your peers\n \n\n\nBenefits\n\n * Get to work in a talented, remote-first international team\n * Chance to make an impact on a global product\n * Actual work-life balance with healthy 40-hour work weeks\n * Flexible work time\n * Biannual company retreats\n * Competitive salary\n * Friendly and encouraging work environment\n \n\nOur hiring process:\nAfter we've received and reviewed your application, there are a number of stages in our process: * Initial video call. You'll get to learn more about the role and our company, and we'll learn how you communicate and what are you looking for in the job.\n * Technical interview. Qualified candidates proceed to our technical interview, where we ask more in-depth technical questions.\n * Home assignment. We'll test your coding skills in building a small application. You can do this at home on your own time. The assignments usually take about 4-6 hours to complete.\n * Assignment review and skills interview. After our team has reviewed your assignment, we invite you to the next interview. We'll provide feedback and ask questions about your code. This interview also includes some pair-programming, where we do some improvements or additional features to your project.\n * Culture interview. The final step before decisions. Great cultural fit is highly important in our remote team. We also want to give you as much as possible information on how it is to work at Leadfeeder and what our culture is like.\n \n\n\nAll interviews are done remotely over video calls, but of course if you happen to be in the same city with some of our team members we're happy to organize a meeting on site.\n\n \n\n#Salary and compensation\n No salary data published by company so we estimated salary based on similar jobs related to Ruby, Senior, Engineer, Developer, Digital Nomad, DevOps, Video, Elasticsearch, Serverless, API, Sales, SaaS and Backend jobs that are similar:\n\n $65,000 — $120,000/year\n
